S skinheadjc Retro Guru Apr 8, 2009 #1 It was sold to me as a 1993 or 1994 'Alan' the only identifying marks are the numbers 040 under the seatstay bridge. Any help identifying/confirming the maker would be apreciated. Thanks.

A adamdom Devout Dirtbag Apr 8, 2009 #2 Looks like an Alan to me. Ive got several mates with Alan road bikes of about the same date and they look very close to that

P Pickle Retrobike Rider Gold Trader GT Fan Feedback View Apr 9, 2009 #6 Thats beautiful. Cant say I am loving the riser bar style build, but its all personal choice at the end of the day I would love a frame like that

mike_eb Retro Guru Apr 10, 2009 #8 I think British Eagle had a alu-carbon frame, though Alan may have built it for them.
dbmtb Gold Trader Feedback View Apr 10, 2009 #9 Definitely Alan I think it's earlier than 94 though. I used to ride with a guy that had one in 93 and he'd had it for a couple of years already.

S skinheadjc Retro Guru Apr 11, 2009 #10 Yeah i think its an early one - the rear dropout is non replaceable and its was around 93 / 94 that they came in.
